I'm not sure Weimann is available.

Wife's had baby early hours this morning hence why he's not here.

Fozzy and Nuge dropped, I think Weimann would've been ahead of Anya but for his family reasons

Who’d have thought Anya would ever start again

He's been delivering the goods in the under 23s.

Just one of the many intriguing aspects of today's match 

Along with 'will Palmer be brought on in the 75th minute?'

I really want to see Rowett's persistence with Thorne to show fruit today. I absolutely adore the guy, as we all do - but the last two games have been two of his worst imo, he needs to hit that rhythm and confidence we know he's capable of.

Godd to see Olsson getting a chance after Forsyth's showing on Tuesday against Millwall.

Congrats to the Weimanns. How things have changed, Cloughie would have delivered the baby in the old days while Andi got a good nights sleep ready for the game.

Just listening to Radio Derby. Doesn't Craig Ramage drone on and talk drivel? 

Or am I just in a bad mood ?

One thought I've bandied around is that I think Anya  (particularly on the right) could prove to be far more effective than we've seen him before. 

His pace and ability to hug the touchline gives Rowett an option to really stretch the game. Also, whilst I've been very critical of Anya's delivery  (and his seeming want to just chip in a lofty cross no matter what) it could prove a lot more fruitful with a battering ram like Jerome in the box. 

Will be interesting to see how it plays out today.

Congratulations and best wishes to Mr and Mrs Weimann and their two children!?

I'll give you 2 guesses where I was when my ex missus went into labour.

0 bloody 0 draw at home to Leeds. Looking back I could have missed that one.

Ledley for Thorne otherwise happy. Congrats to the Weimanns got a good feeling today 

[Ninos]

Pretty entertaining that Brentford must have prepared to attack a left side of Weimann and Fozzy. Time for a 45 min rethink fir them? Ha!

Hi Wingfield. I live in a place called Marple near Stockport so my train is to Sheffield! The Matlock mention caused a little confusion I think

I have very fond memories of navigating a 70ft narrow boat down the Marple steps. 

And stopping for a nice tea and cake in the town. Very pleasant.

Something weird and amazing happening today. My adorable partner and wife of 25 years, who has never been close to a football ground (not for religious reasons, it's just she's more of a face cream sort of  girl than A lover of the beautiful game ) has decided as a birthday present to come to the game with me. .....I am going to have to brush up my mansplaining. But at least she can recite the offside rule 

come on you Rams . 

 

Was that you with your good lady in The Brunswick jono? I ask only as a gentlemen was shepherding (what else?) his partner around the joint. I thought she’s new to this scene

Like the team today. Not sure why Palmer isn't in the side though. Not a lot of point in bringing him in to warm the bench, should have got someone else in if that's his place.

I'm sure he will be starting in the not so distant future. We don't have to chuck him straight in from the beginning, give him a bit of time in training to get to know the squad before putting them in from the start. Jerome was on the bench twice and is now finally starting for the first time, Lawrence had to sit on the bench for a few games to begin with too. Palmer won't have been signed to simply make up the numbers.

Lawrence would have been the player I'd have dropped for him. Been pretty apathetic lately.

A chance to gain some momentum again

Hope everyone has a good game, especially Anya and Thorne

Took ages for thorne to start when we signed him.
